Dakez, do the seat posts get locktite treatment from the factory? I'm having a devil of a time getting mine off to put on that same brown springer seat. Maybe I need to get it up on a lift rather than trying to remove it with a wrench under the fender and the Torx in the post.

Not "locktite" But they should have a small amount of a weak thread lock compound. You should not be having trouble though.
